| Don Sachs Owners Thread Now that I think about it, I haven't contacted Roy in years, his outlook may have changed. I may be talking about a Roy from a different era. | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread I shouldn't have left it there. Roy designed Don's preamp, but he was content with it. He's a genius to be sure, and certainly quite knowledgeable. Don is as well, but his genius is perfecting things, and you have to be unbelievable knowledgeable ... | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread I hope that you are able to get it working. One other thing to try would be contact cleaner. | |
| V-Cap ODAM: What the Future Sounds Like Theory says that Teflon dialectics are the best there is. I don't know how, but Chris seems to have defied physics with these capacitors. They are easily the best sounding capacitors I have heard, and I have heard many of the best of the best. If ... | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread You'll be amazed if you're DS2 doesn't have the ODAM caps already. That's where I am now. It's so good that improvements surprise me, it escapes reason because it sounds so close to live as it is! Don is using Spatial Audio now, so I suppose that ... | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread That's interesting, has it been broken in? Since you recently re-tubed your DAC, it may be its tubes improving. The DS2 shouldn't be shifting sound in my experience unless something has been changed. | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread I may have some set screws if he's on vacation, but finding them may take a miracle. My work area is a disaster area. | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread You should ask Don if your preamp has ODAM capacitors. If not you haven't heard anything yet. | |
| Best Stereo Upgrade Value ODAM capacitors. If you have good equipment, these will turn your system into a great one. Use them as primary, or bypass capacitors and they are a game changer. Linlai E-6SN7's along with ODAM capacitors, if you use 6SN7s are amazing together. | |
| ODAM capacitors. I just noticed that I said that the miniature tube board was for 6DJ8 tubes, actually they are 12AU7 tubes. | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread Don told me that the buffers were not critical. If you have plenty of money, use whatever, but if not you may want to use a less expensive tube as a buffer. | |
| Mark Levinson 27.5 versus modern day amps @porschefanatic99 Nice setup. I still have the 27.5, but my son has the B&Ws. If you know how to solder, bypassing any electrolytic capacitors in series with the drivers with say ODAM caps won't kill the house sound of the 801Ms, but it w... | |
| Chris' latest cables. @dave_b Oops, you've stepped in it now! 😉 There can be only one opinion here! 😀 Thanks. | |
| Chris' latest cables. @steakster Nice, but VH Audio is at the upper end of my tolerance for cable cost. I purchased what I needed to make a few different cables in order to save a couple of bucks after my initial purchase. | |
| Chris' latest cables. @shooter41 The Spectrum cables. They were $200 more a pair, not an easy price to pay. I've never heard his Spectrum cables, so unfortunately I am unable to say what, if any, difference they made in my system. I rather doubt that the Spectrum ... |
